On early episodes of the syndicated TTD, Wink asks contestants if they want to quit during the bonus round to avoid finding the dragon and keep their money, the same way Jack would ask Joker's Wild contestants if they wanted to stop along the way. On later editions, however, contestants plow on and pick numbers without Wink offering this.
Does anyone know if they still had the option to walk away even though it wasn't stated, or was that rule changed? Also, does anyone recall a contestant stopping prematurely in later episodes of the series?
